Rafah border crossing endured 4 bombings from Israel, Egypt says
The Rafah border crossing between Egypt and Gaza has now endured four bombings from Israel, according to a spokesperson for Egypt's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The Rafah crossing was shut on Oct. 10 after it was hit by Israeli warplanes on the Palestinian side three times on Oct. 9 and 10.
"We are in constant contact with all U.N. agencies to extract a safe passage for the relief aid," Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry told BBC Radio. "There is not yet any sort of authorization for a safe passage from the other side of the crossing.”
Shoukry also called out Israeli leaders who urged Gaza residents to move south, saying, "Israel’s call for displacement to the South is in full contradiction to international humanitarian law, leaving people with no water, electricity or food."
